[Bug 1534792] Re: unable to connect or load identity file

[Colin Watson]

The key_load_public bits are a red herring; it loads id_rsa(.pub)
successfully (you can tell because it says "type 1", not "type -1"), and
the immediately-subsequent error pertains to id_rsa-cert(.pub) instead.
So it's successfully loaded the available identity file.

I think the next steps here should have been:

 * increase debugging to -vvv rather than just -vv (no point in messing about, might as well have the maximum debugging level)
 * see if there's any useful logging at the server end if you have root access to it, probably in /var/log/auth.log

However, it seems that the network fix was sufficient?  I would say that
a hang is a fairly typical response to a misconfigured network.  ssh's
debugging output is primarily intended for developers, and I don't think
we (or upstream) would generally consider it a bug that it may require
reading the source code to determine what it means.

** Summary changed:

- unable to connect or load identity file
+ unable to connect
